Origin/meaning
Malsch is one of the oldest settlements in the area. It was the seat of the counts of Ufgau, who named themselves afterwards the counts of Malsch. Their successors, the counts of Eberstein founded at the end of the 12th century some estates in the area. At the end of the 13th century, the village became part of Baden. In 1318 the counts of Baden sold the village to the Herrenalb abbey. After the reformation in 1535 the village became part of Württemberg. In 1604 it was again sold, this time to Baden-Durlach and finally in 1622 again to Baden.
The oldest seal of the village dates from 1471 and shows already the plough iron. It probably was the old village sign, a symbol put on stones to mark village boundaries. All later seals show the plough iron. The colours were not known and finally in 1900 the present colours were adapted.
